Bronchitis is a condition in which there is an acute inflammation of the trachea and bronchi of the lungs, resulting in the accumulation and discharge of phlegm or sputum. Bronchitis can be acute or chronic. Bronchitis treatment may vary depending on the type of the disease. Acute bronchitis is of short duration and treatment may take a few weeks, while chronic bronchitis treatment may take slightly longer.
